Very few films come close to the brilliance Kenneth Branagh achieved with his first foray into screenwriting and direction. Henry V qualifies as a masterpiece.  He literally breaths life into Shakespeare's words! Another excellent Shakespeare play brought to life by Kenneth Branagh. Co-starring Emma Thompson, Denzel Washington, Keanu Reeves and a hysterical Michael Keaton.  You don't have to understand Shakespeare to love this film.
